Dementia, a chronic disease of aging, is characterized by progressive cognitive decline that interferes with independent functioning. The medical, psychological, social and functional sequelae of dementia cause great stress to patients, their caregivers, and their family. The investigator proposes to examine effectivness of a home-based care coordination and management device, called Care4AD to help caregivers effectively coordinate, manage, and improve dementia care.

The goal of this pilot study is to test a combination of two non-invasive brain stimulation methods, called iTBS (intermittent theta burst stimulation) and tDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation), in people with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and related dementias (ADRD). This study will also explore whether the combined treatment shows promise for reducing neuropsychiatric symptoms like mood swings, apathy, and agitation, and will evaluate the impact of the treatment on caregivers. The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1. Is the combined brain stimulation treatment practical and well-tolerated? 2. Do preliminary results suggest that this treatment could help manage neuropsychiatric symptoms and support a larger study? Participants will: * Attend nine in-person visits over three months. * Complete one week of in-clinic brain stimulation sessions (iTBS) followed by four weeks of daily at-home brain stimulation sessions (tDCS). * Take part in brain scans, questionnaires, and brain activity tests before and after the treatment. This pilot study is a first step to assess whether this combined treatment approach is practical and whether it has potential to improve symptoms, laying the groundwork for larger studies in the future.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if stem cell therapy works to treat brain inflammation in adults. Inflammation in the brain may be involved in adults who have memory or thinking problems. The stem cells will be taken from participant's fat samples, processed and given back to participants, so they are their own donor. The main questions this trial aims to answer are: * Does stem cell therapy reduce inflammation in the brain? * Does stem cell therapy improve brain activity? * Does stem cell therapy slow down progression to Alzheimer's disease? Participants will: * Have a small fat biopsy taken at a doctor's office to process stem cells * Receive 4 infusions of stem cells, through a vein in the arm over 12 weeks * Visit the clinic every 2-4 weeks for the first 4 months and then every 1-2 months for 8 months for checkups and tests

This trial is testing a device that uses ultrasound waves to temporarily open the brain's protective barrier in patients with Alzheimer's Disease. The goal is to see if this can help medications reach the brain better.

The purpose of this research study is to test the study drug, referred to as remternetug, to determine its effectiveness for the study treatment of asymptomatic (at risk) Alzheimer disease in individuals with AD-causing mutations. This study will also investigate the effects of remternetug on biomarkers (measures of the disease including brain scans, blood and spinal fluid tests), examine safety data to identify any potential benefits or risks, and examine how well participants can tolerate remternetug. Stage 1 will determine if treatment with the study drug prevents or reverses amyloid beta (Aβ) accumulation compared with placebo in participants with dominantly inherited Alzheimer's disease (DIAD). Stage 2 will evaluate the effect of early anti-amyloid treatment on downstream biomarkers of AD in treated participants compared to external control groups.

The purpose is to evaluate the biomarker effect, safety, and tolerability of investigational study drugs in participants who are known to have an Alzheimer's disease (AD)-causing mutation. Stage 1 will determine if treatment with the study drug prevents or slows the rate of amyloid beta (Aβ) pathological disease accumulation demonstrated by Aβ positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. Stage 2 will evaluate the effect of early Aβ plaque reduction/prevention on disease progression by assessing downstream non-Aβ biomarkers of AD (e.g., CSF total tau, p-tau, NfL) compared to an external control group from the DIAN-OBS natural history study and the DIAN-TU-001 placebo-treated participants.

Researchers want to learn if giving MK-1167 (the study medicine) along with acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (AChEI) therapy can improve symptoms of Alzheimer's disease dementia (AD dementia), such as memory and mental activity. AD dementia is the most common type of dementia. AChEI therapy is the standard treatment for AD dementia. The goals of this study are to learn: * If at least one dose level (amount) of MK-1167 works to improve a person's memory and thinking compared to a placebo * About the safety of MK-1167 and if people tolerate it

This is a multicenter randomized double-blind placebo-controlled Phase 2 study of an oral combination of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) compared to placebo over 12 weeks. This study is designed to test the hypothesis that treatment with an oral combination of THC/CBD will reduce agitation hospice care-eligible patients with agitation and dementia as measured by the Cohen Mansfield Agitation Inventory (CMAI) when compared to placebo at 2 weeks. This study will enroll approximately 120 participants of any gender at least 40 years of age who are hospice care-eligible with agitation and dementia (HAD). Participants will be randomized (50:50) to either active study drug (T2:C100) or placebo. The double-blind period of this study is 12 weeks. A 12 week optional open-label extension will be offered to participants who complete the double-blind period.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I watched my mother die from Parkinson’s. At the time of her death, she weighed 85 pounds and could not move any muscles voluntarily except her eyelids. I would like to participate in a trial to help find a better treatment for PD than what is currently available. It is a devastating illness. It breaks my heart that other families will have to go through this."

WU
Healthy Volunteer PatientAge: 76

"I watched my mother suffer through years of Alzheimer's Disease and I want to help advance the science for treating AD. I don't want anyone else to have go through what our family went through."

OF
Alzheimer's Disease PatientAge: 65

"I have a very strong family history of Alzheimer’s, with my maternal grandmother, mother, uncle, and sister having the disease. My APOE status is 2/4. My memory is going, although 6 months ago I tested decently on some cognitive tests. I'd like to help myself by getting ahead of my condition and help others in a similar situation by participating in medical research."

EK
Mild Cognitive Impairment PatientAge: 72

"I'm so used to losing things, forgetting things, making up to acronyms to remember things only to remember the acromym but not what the letters stand for... I enter a new room to look for an item, only to forget what I was looking for. I've discussed the existing treatments with my neurologist and she's on board with my joining a clinical trial."

AH
Dementia PatientAge: 64

"I have been on standard Alzheimer's medication for a few years but know this treatment only works to delay my cognitive deterioration, not improve it. I've been doing research, which brought me here, to consider some of the latest research drugs. While I know that there's no guarantee that a clinical trial improves my condition, I'd like to give one a try and help further the research for all."

VL
Alzheimer's PatientAge: 71
The purpose of this study is to determine if intensive lowering of systolic blood pressure (SBP), using FDA approved medications (antihypertensive), reduces Alzheimer's Disease pathology (i.e., excessive brain amyloid and tau protein deposition) in older adults at high risk for memory decline or dementia.
